For tens of thousands of businessmen like Zhang Yiwen, it is useless to just think about the Chief Envoy's Yamen and the Governor's Mansion.
Because they can't get in.
Regardless of whether the local clans actually control the so-called civil forces, as long as the governor does not take the initiative to see them, then he will never see a *** like the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian in his life.
Even if he is a prefect, he actually has the face of his brother from the capital clan.
Now something has happened to the most critical person, and Zhang has reached the most dangerous stage. In a few days, the news will spread, and there are still many black hands reaching out to him.
But that doesn't mean that if he immediately defected to Fengxi at this juncture, the result would be good. Things are far from simple.
How could a businessman be so popular? It seemed as if the governor of a province was waiting for him.
Among them, two layers have to be considered.
First, how was Zhang Yitian arrested in the capital.
If it wasn't because of this incident, but because of other things, if he defected at this time and then talked about everything in one go, wouldn't this mean that there is no silver in this place? And he also sold Zhang Yitian.
Originally, he had nothing to do, or he hadn't explained it himself, or he had a lot of energy in the capital. In short, it was still unclear whether Zhang Yitian would be able to turn the corner. Don't let Zhang Yitian keep secret in the capital, but his family will explain everything first.
In the final analysis, it is difficult to make the choice to actually spend real money to switch sides. People always have illusions about better results.
Secondly, if Zhang Yitian becomes problematic, then there is something wrong with Mr. Zhang. At this time, Zhang actually became a hot potato. Neither Fengxi nor Wang Hao would accept this hot potato, because they didn't know what happened in the capital, let alone the reason why the emperor arrested Zhang Yitian.
Zhang changed sides and made great sacrifices, and his purpose must include rescuing Zhang Yitian.
Because if this person cannot be saved, all other options are meaningless to Zhang. There is no way to save half of your life. Either continue to be brilliant, or go back to being a poor peasant, or even lose your life.
Do you want to save Zhang Yitian? Who dares to beat this guarantee?
So this moment was extremely torturous for Zhang Yiwen, and it was hard to say what he was feeling, including hatred for the government, regret for his past choices,
Fengxi only began to know that a fourth-grade official in Beijing had been arrested when he heard someone report that many shops of the Zhang family had suddenly closed. Otherwise, he would not have reached this point.
Except for Zhang,
The other families in Fuzhou City suddenly panicked.
Zhang Yitian couldn't ask to see Fengxi, but that didn't mean that others couldn't.
Guo, who always advanced and retreated with Zhang, went to the Fuzhou magistrate's office the next day to ask for an audience. When he arrived, she found that someone was already there before him.
Some were wearing official uniforms, and some were wearing coarse linen and linen clothes... Some were county magistrates, and some were wealthy households.
The other bosses also looked at Guo Fangzhen of the Guo family with strange eyes.
Why is he here?
This group of people complained to each other...it turned out that Wang Shouren seemed to be trying to be tough.
"The new prefect did not come alone. He was led by the envoy and the governor. Yesterday, people in the prefect's office told us that the prefect was anxious and started to borrow troops from the envoy's office. What is he going to do? ?”….
If a foreign official is easy to be ignored when he comes to the place, then Zhu Houzhao will send a group of... administrative and military officials. It turns out that there is an inspector who will restrict Fengxi. If he feels inappropriate, he will be replaced as well.
I really don’t believe it, just think of it as an official of the imperial court and not an official?
Now it’s not until the end of the Ming Dynasty! The rule of the imperial court has not collapsed to such an extent!
…
…
"So, Wang Boan's method is really effective?"
Fengxi smiled and said, "Continuous threats are somewhat effective. Most people are not desperate. But there is no complete solution.
In order to solve the problem, there are still some places and some people who are stubborn and feel that there is nothing we can do to them. "
Wang Hao touched his beard and said, "As long as they are not monolithic, it is a big credit to Wang Bo'an. As for the rest, don't worry. His Majesty's original intention was to link the fight against smuggling with the opening of the sea. I have heard that Beijing There is movement inside. If anyone is stubborn, he will find a solution when the time comes."
"Furthermore, I have written to the capital, requesting your majesty to temporarily use Fujian's tax and grain this year as a reserve for military supplies and wages. If there are changes, they can be used immediately. If there is no danger, then use it for whatever purpose. In this way, even if only a part of the taxes and grains are collected, it will be enough for Yu Zichu. Afterwards, the overall situation has been decided, and we will slowly settle the accounts with them for those who are in arrears of taxes and grains!"
The most important thing is that this group of people failed to pay the tax and grain, and then let the court blame the two of them.
Afterwards, Wang Hao would collect all the taxes and grain that Fujian should pay.
"It's a good idea to convert it into military supplies and wages on the spot."
If you don't go to Fujian, you won't know that you will encounter this problem. If you don't encounter this problem, you won't be able to come up with this solution.
In short, if Fujian's overall situation is stable, it should not be a problem for them.
"Budang, how about Zhejiang?"
In the feudal era, Fujian's status and power were not as good as Zhejiang's. After all, there were large tracts of farmland in northern Zhejiang suitable for farming. Huzhou Prefecture and Hangzhou Prefecture were both better than Fuzhou Prefecture.
Especially in Hangzhou, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. This is not a joke.
Moreover, there are many Jinshi scholars in Zhejiang, including some who are high-ranking officials in the court.
"We still have to wait until the actual order to open sea is issued before everything will be known."
No matter what clan it is, or King Huai.
The imperial court's posture has been set, and whether it has the courage to truly confront it is more critical.
In this kind of waiting, time actually passes very slowly, but no matter how slow it is, summer will still turn into autumn, the leaves will gradually wither and turn yellow, and the weather will gradually become colder.
Time is passing, and people from all sides are speculating on the court's movements.
In September, Wang Hao, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, went to Hangzhou. After returning, some news began to spread, coming from the Governor's Mansion.
[The problem of slow update of new chapters has finally been solved. Download it here and view the latest chapters of this book on multiple sites at the same time. 】
It is said that the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian went to Hangzhou in person to supervise local officials and criticized the chaos and high number of merchants from coastal state capitals going to sea privately.
In mid-September, the Superintendent of Ceremonies suddenly sent an edict to the two provinces of Zhejiang and Fujian and to the entire country:
It was not an imperial edict, but a question, asking whether Shibosi should withdraw.
The emperor asked: It is said that people rely on mountains to eat mountains and water to eat water. In Zhejiang and Fujian provinces, seven mountains and two rivers are divided into fields. The imperial court strictly prohibits the sea. If the people have no food, they turn to the seaside to plunder the seaside, or privately trade incense and goods to lure the barbarians. For stealing. After the ban on trading ships, there were profit holes, female merchants were tempted by foreigners, the islands and barbarians were in internal strife, and there was no peace on the sea. The more stringent the maritime ban is, the greater its value will be, and the more people will flee overseas. I want to take this opportunity to ask the world, if the people have nothing to do with food and clothing, how can they not obey each other and seduce them into thieves? "
